Course Overview

Our Online + Live Zoom Communication OSCE Course is a structured 8-week training program designed to help overseas-trained dentists prepare for the Australian Dental Council (ADC) Part 2 Communication OSCE examination.

The program combines live interactive Zoom sessions, structured online learning, clinical case discussions, role-play opportunities, detailed feedback and ongoing personalised support.

It is suitable for first-time candidates and dentists who have previously attempted the examination, particularly those who benefit from guided preparation, regular discussions and opportunities to practise communication scenarios.

Throughout the eight-week program, candidates can strengthen their clinical reasoning, improve their communication structure, develop patient-centred approaches and become more confident in examination-style scenarios.

The course also includes up to 10 online or onsite role-play opportunities, which may be replaced with a mock test by arrangement.

After the eight-week live program, candidates retain online course access until they pass or for up to 12 months, whichever comes first, allowing them to continue independent preparation.
